Hello Wolodja!
Thanks a lot! This hint helped a lot, now the graphics accelereation
seems to work fine. At least I get now about 770 fps with glxgears, so
the improvement is very much noticeable. (And I noticed that the radeon
driver does perform even better than the radeonhd driver; this is the
driver which the xserver chooses by default if one leaves it out from
the xorg.conf file.)
With best wishes,
- Martin
